Most forms of gambling are illegal in New York -- except the lotto, horse racing, bingo, and games of chance. This proposal would amend the state constitution to legalize gambling, but limit the total number of casinos statewide to just seven.

Proposal Number 2, an Amendment: Additional Civil Service Credit for Veterans with Disabilities Certified Post Appointment

Veterans who take the civil service exam are eligible for 5 extra points the first time they take the test, and 10 extra points if they are disabled. This proposal would make it easier for disabled veterans to get extra credit points if they are certified disabled after they take the test for the first time.

Proposal Number 3, an Amendment: Exclusion of Indebtedness Contracted for Sewage Facilities

This proposal would allow towns, cities, and counties to dispose of their waste without fear of exceeding their debt limit. Legislation excluding "sewer debt" from debt limits was first enacted in 1963, but only for a certain number of years. This proposal would extend the practice through 2024.

This proposal would settle a number of land disputes that have persisted for more than a hundred years in Hamilton County. If passed, the state would relinquish its old claim on land in exchange for new forest land to be added to Adirondack Park.

Proposal Number 5, an Amendment: In Relation to a Land Exchange in the State Forest Preserve with NYCO Minerals, Inc.

This proposal would give 200 acres of Adirondack Park land, and permission to mine that land, to the private mining company NYCO minerals with the understanding that NYCO would give the same amount of land to a forest preserve, and would also restore and return the 200 acres to the state upon completion of mining.
